4052 Exterior at Eveleigh

Dust-covered timber stairs climb toward an open attic doorway

its buildings timber-framed false fronts replicating 1880s main-street architecture

hinting at the rooms beyond

paint peeling in thick sheets from the surface around them

Wash House Facing West Type:Framed 4052 Exterior at EveleighGlazed roof trusses draw light down the length of the workers' wash house at Portland Cement Works, falling across a concrete floor and a timber bench. Steel lockers line the far wall. White glazed brick. The room is wide and empty now, though it was once the daily endpoint for men coming off shift in one of the largest cement manufacturing operations in Australia. Part of the Portland Cement Works series.
